    A fair score for this game how it is is a 7. Where this game falls short is its ability to grab my attention for extended periods of time, the controls, and the basis of any FPS, the shooting.

Where this game falls short is its ability to grab my attention for extended periods of time, the controls, and the basis of any FPS, the shooting.

    Controls: 2/10 The fact that I am forced to keep my aim/shoot on L2-R2 where almost every other FPS is L1-R1 is a massive mistake. It feels unnatural. It feels uncomfortable. Its down right annoying. There should ALWAYS be a plethora of control options so players can tailor the controls to how they see fit.

    Targeting: 3/10The targeting is horrible. As many flaws as Destiny had, its core game-play should be a model for all FPS games. Battlefront is like trying to shoot clay pigeons with a shotgun. You have to lead your target whether your target is far or near. It just doesn't feel natural. That being said, I do like having to lead my target with long distant sniping. It actually requires skill and is very rewarding.

    Graphics: 10/10 Not much to say here. One of the most, if not the best, looking games on the PS4.

    SFX: 9/10

    Content: 6/10 There are enough different game modes to keep the PvP interesting for some time but the lack of campaign is difficult to swallow. Considering the scale of the Star Wars universe and what the core game delivered, its evident that EA will milk this game through DLC.

    Recommendations: Wait to pickup a used copy. Its a fun game to sit down and burn an hour or two but for extended periods of time it gets boring and probably will just make you suck at other FPS games considering how wack the aiming and controls are.    … Expand

    This game is a solid 10. I don't mind the all online. I love the fluid controls, beautiful worlds, hectic online battles. I love everything about this game. If you had fun playing Battlefield 4, there is no way you won't like this game.

    This game does not go beyond the title, in terms of game depth, because it is really a battlefront and heavily focuses on the various battles that are happening during the rebellion. I wish it had more of a story line but I can settle with this. I imagine the next installment will have a story based on the new trilogy.

    The graphics and sound design are stunning. And that's were the praise ends. Battlefront fails to deliver space battles, clone wars or 32v32 battles. These are all things battlefront 2 has offered from 2005. This game is very overpriced and I recommend waiting until the price drops.

    The rest is unfortunately mediocre at best. Let's start with the obvious in that there is no single player campaign or Galactic Conquest, and prequel content is made to sit on the sidelines this time. This means that genuinely cool planets and heroes can't be included because DICE and EA have either limited themselves or been limited by Disney.

    Gunplay is bland, with little to no recoil. Vehicles are clunky and hard to control on some maps (of which there are disappointingly few), and there are only three heroes per faction. Overall, I am disappointed by this game.

    One last thing I forgot was that it was promised there would be no DLC, and then now there's a 50 dollar Season Pass. Knocking a couple points off for that one.    … Expand

    Putting it as simply as possible, this is not a complete game. Just because game companies repeatedly ship half finished games so they can slog us more for the other half doesn't make it okay.

    Starwars Battlefront 2 a PS2 GAME has WAY more content than this next gen game. Galactic Conquest, space battles, dozens of maps, campaigns, etc. This has nothing. This was made by the wrong company. This is not Battlefront. The game that was supposed to come out for ps3 and xbox 360 looked 5x better. This is a joke. This is just a standard battlefield skinned shooter.

    The vehicles control like crap

    There is no single player at all

    No campaign, co-op or otherwise

    The heroes are clanky and crappy, they make no sense

    There are only 4 planets, so the "16 maps" is a big fat lie, because so many of the maps feel the same

    The screen is constantly CONSTANTLY shaking from the explosions and crap

    The gameplay is subpar and completely and utterly imbalanced, with a homing rocket launcher round with infinite ammo once every 18 seconds and grenade spam EVERYWHERE.

There are moments where I found Battlefront to be a good game, but they were quickly erased once I realized that the first 2 hours were going to be my favorite moments. I streamed this game over Twitch and put a full 10 hours toward it before passing final judgment, and just like the viewers that I was engaging with and talking about the game with, I found myself very disappointed. This is not a complete and total failure, but it's a game that just never fully developed. Playing in Star Wars vehicles are frustrating because the aiming systems are complete garbage - no matter what sensitivity you use it's impossible to glide your crosshair over enemies - probably why you have to use a left-trigger/left-button to lock on to enemy air fighters. I constantly crashed into stuff trying to attack infantry from the air even after 30+ attempts to master the controls. Keep in mind that I am a great pilot in Battlefield and am a very experienced shooter player, so it's not coming from an inept casual player that is sad he can't cut it. I expect more from DICE and EA since Battlefield is fairly deep (and now includes a single player mode, even if it's just okay in terms of quality). Visiting the battlefields of the Star Wars universe and hearing the wonderful Star Wars soundtrack in the background are the best treats to have, but everything else about Battlefront is half-baked. The DLC is $50 in season-pass form and stands as DICE's opportunity to improve this game. Some might enjoy this game, so don't completely throw it out as a possible must-have game for you, but unless decent graphics, a soundtrack and nostalgia are enough to satisfy you, your $60 is better spent on other great games (Fallout 4 is a good buy in lieu of Battlefront, or even Black Ops 3 - I can't believe I'm recommending a CoD game over Battlefront).… Expand

    Graphically I don't think any of us have a question with what DICE has done yet again. The sounds and visuals are stunning from the blinding snow fields of Hoth to the deep woods of Endor. It's "pretty" to be blunt. I have no doubt that any fans of Star Wars or those that have experienced this engine before will enjoy the flashes of red lasers flying over their heads and diving for cover when one of those pesky rebels toss a thermal at you.

    Star Wars fandom aside what are we left with?

    The maps though well designed from what I've experienced are limited to 4 for those looking for the "conquest" style of play from Battlefield. Supremacy and Walker assault provide 40 man battles but comprise a 4 map rotation. Now for me that's weak and I'll tell you why. Yes they look stunning, yes I love the sound but in the end the wonder does start to wear off that's just a fact of it. You pick up vehicles by dashing for the pick ups, which are the occasional AT which I've never seen more than one on a map at a time or fighters. Now the fighters are cool but if you are fighting on the ground chances are they are going to ignore you. So what you are left with is a giant infantry battle with the Empire only being able to field one AT at a time, I don't feel the desperation as a rebel.

    I don't know what to say other then it gets boring. You cannot prone, crouching doesn't effect weapon accuracy and the guns feel about the same. You have your blaster, heavy blaster (light mg), pistols (smg) from my understanding and the odd burst weapon and a "shotgun". The selection is small and though I don't expect a wealth of weapons I made the assumption that you literally can make up whatever weapons you want and you made about a dozen. If we compare that to COD or Battlefield its laughable, I have more sidearms to pick from then main weapons. If you look at the original battlefronts you have sniper rifles that aren't specials, grenade launchers, sonic weapons and...well more creativity.

    Gun play I'm not sure is going to entice hardcore gamers as its more family friendly and has a wider audience appeal. Its easy to pick up and play and the learning curve is minimal. Since even kneeling in cover means nothing as a guy running and gunning has about the same accuracy as you that's the ball game.

    I think my problem is I expected Battlefield and that was silly of me. I remember Star Wars Battlefront fondly. Even if the singleplayer was basic maps with a bit of a story I still completed it because A) its Star Wars and B) it was still a challenge. I remember crash landing during space battles to destroy the other teams ship and shouting at my clone marine to run faster.

    I'm not sure what Star Wars Battlefront is trying to be. It has none of the diversity of COD or Battlefield. Limited weapons, no weapon customization, character customization is just for fun but even in Star Wars I looked at my options and went meh. Vehicles are one the AT that you can actually move the AT-ATS when you do get inside is for a limited time and is a mobile artillery piece..still fun. Fighters are what you expect but with even your blasters being able to lock on it makes the game "family friendly" in terms of skill. You have more turret options to use then vehicles. If this was a battlefield clone but Star Wars I probably would have been more happy. I just feel this is cashing in on the hype of Star Wars right now. People can say its fun and ya it is, I'll still play it from time to time but I feel like I've experienced everything it has to offer and the day isn't over yet.

    I would have liked the pick ups in game to be removed completely and perhaps a kill streak award instead. Anyone can take the hero pick up which is great for people and at the same time why is Darth Vader running in circles? The cards are perks but by another name. I have no real complaint with them but no praise either.

    I gave it a 6/10 because my really disappointment despite everything is you had such an open book with this game in terms of what could be down with it. The result is a game lacking the multiplayer depth of even the original games in my opinion or its rivals COD, BF etc. Perhaps my dream was unrealistic but this game doesn't feel finished. In a galaxy far far away you visit maybe four-five planets out of the entire star wars universe. The season pass doesn't do it for me as I don't think we as gamers need to pay money for a game that just doesn't feel finished.

    You objectives are hammered by simplicity and lack of traversal options, which look all the more ridiculous in third-person as you see your trooper struggling to surmount a small ridge. Battlefront feels outdated, and the unlockable jump pack doesn’t do much to improve things, its overly long cool-down preventing repeated uses.

    Performance is generally very smooth in-game, though there are some noticeable instances of texture pop-in on vehicles and the landscape, primarily in pre-game fly-bys or in the singleplayer missions. While the singleplayer and multiplayer missions take place on a few different maps, you’re limited to four planets – Hoth, Tattooine, Endor and Sullust. I would have loved to see more on offer, and though extra locations will be added later that doesn’t really help with the initial sense that there’s not enough meat on the game’s bones.

    Gameplay: Played EA Access over the weekend for 10 hours and 2 issues. That netcode again and spawns are worse than battlefield. I have literally spawned in front of the enemy and spawn trapping can be done. The spawns will be a major complaint in the coming weeks along with hit detection. Just your typical EA/DICE multiplayer game.

    Verdict: Rent before you buy or wait a month as EA usually cuts the price in half. Then you can snag it. If you do buy towards the full price, try buying used from gamestop. You get 7 days to return any used game at gamestop if you do not like it. No questions asked. There is always gamefly where you can set the 1 month free trial and try BF for free also.

    Oh, I almost forgot to mention: there's no campaign! LOL, how can a SW game have no campaign?

    Stay away from this game, it will look amazing in the first hour, but will be forgotten in a few months! Glad I could play it on the 10 hours trial from EA Acess and didn't buy it.    … Expand

    EA Greed Strikes Back should be the title of this disasterpiece. Yes, the graphics are incredible - hence the "1" score. The 9 other missing points are for the lack of fun, content, and the incessant over-charging EA continuously does AND GETS AWAY WITH.

    Very disappointing its just far to simplistic and basic game-play formula so boring.

    This game looks and sound amazing but at its core its just another MP shooter and needed to innovate they played it safe and it fall flat on it s face.

Go buy it if Star Wars means more to you than your wife and kids or if you've got some money to blow. But if you're a pragmatic spender like me then wait for a discount or until they add more content. Hopefully they have a GOTY edition or something after a while.    … Expand

    No story mode to speak of. There is some content to play in single player, but it's nothing anyone will waste time on. Online mode is pretty skimpy and has had a lot of connection issues. I give this game 1 star for the pretty graphics. Probably the biggest letdown of the year. I'm trading my copy in this weekend. I hope the next Star Wars game isn't as bad as this one.

Battlefront is visually beautiful, with sounds just as detailed. Gameplay is enjoyable, fun, a simplistic. Battlefront is great for casual gamers or new gamers to easily jump into and play. Hardcore gamers will find satisfaction in the custom character loadouts and character progression rewards and unlockables. This is a great game to just sit down and enjoy in a fun, fast paced, FPS where it doesn't matter your skill level. This is a game for everyone of all skill types. Just like once upon a time when in multi-player gaming when it didn't matter if you could get a head shot no scope, it was just about having a fun experience in a world many of us love and grew up with. Enjoy it for what it is, take control of the hero's & vilians you love, take to the skies in epic dogfights in ships that you use to imagine piloting growing up. I recommend this game to any Star Wars fan even non Star Wars fan (if they're out there). Just don't expect this to be tactical military accurate shooter because it's not, it's meant for most everyone to be able to pick up and play, and that's what I love about it.

    That being said the fact that it is an EA game, we all know there is a bigger business plan in the works. They have for sure stripped down the original release of this game and it is no mystery they are going to be releasing it in expansion packs.

    it satisfies the old itch to play a star wars game. the game modes are the usual fps fare with objectives to keep it team based and from being a run and gun fps. the best mode is the star fighter squadron. the graphics and sound are just amazing in this game. the only reason I rated it an 8 was the longevity of the game has me concerned a bit. it only has 4 maps that's is varied a bitit satisfies the old itch to play a star wars game. the game modes are the usual fps fare with objectives to keep it team based and from being a run and gun fps. the best mode is the star fighter squadron. the graphics and sound are just amazing in this game. the only reason I rated it an 8 was the longevity of the game has me concerned a bit. it only has 4 maps that's is varied a bit to suit the different modes. as as a result the game can get repetitive. its defiantly not a game you'd play all day on. more like a couple hours at time. but to keep player numbers up I think they will need to add different objective into the maps and add new maps frequently and quickly to build up the number. but the game play is smoother and fun.… Expand

    Very soulless and repetitive game. They could have done way more with the star wars license and they choose to make it a BF clone. Good job EA......good job.

    I am giving this game a 3 only for the mere amazing graphics. The gameplay is so casual and easy, I maybe Global elite in skill based fps like Csgo but Im literally going 50-10 every map while falling asleep because of the sheer casual combat thats just point and click. Your recoil, and spread doesnt even get effected by jumping. REALLY? It gets boring after the first 30 minutes, theI am giving this game a 3 only for the mere amazing graphics.

Your recoil, and spread doesnt even get effected by jumping. REALLY? It gets boring after the first 30 minutes, the content isnt lacking especially for a $110 game. Theyre already talking about multiple sequels when this game isnt even finished, no server browser, only 48 players max, no clone wars, like 9 maps. ARE YOU SERIOUS. This is like a $20-$30 game. Id wait until then before buying and even then its still a bad cash grab.… Expand

    First thing first, this game is Multiplayer-focused. You can play some missions by yourself or with a friend, but that's not the focus of this game.
    The game is beautiful: the graphics are awesome even on consoles and the sound department is faithful to the movies; you actually feel like you're part of the action.

    This is what you'll call a "dumb fun" game: there's no complex mechanics and the skill ceiling is not that big.
    However, what is turning off a lot of people is the price. The game has a 50$ season pass, with that money you can buy another AAA game. Luckily for me, the ultimate edition (that is, the base game plus the season pass) costs around 60$ in my country.
    You might want to rent the game somewhere if you are doubting this game though.    … Expand

    Best sound in a game I've heard in the past decade, good visual , casual easy to pick up gameplay but very poor level of replayability due to the meagre amount of content. Hopefully after all the DLC's are added the game becomes worth the price tag but until then....

    This game doesn't have much depth.

    but what the game is, is fun. Even when I'm getting my ass handed to me, I'm still enjoying the chaos.
    i would highly recommend you rent first if you aren't into MP only games.

    Despite no story, if you liked the beta, you will like the game in whole. Fun game and feels like star wars, but the 69.99 (cdn) season pass kinda left a real bad taste in my mouth :(

    Surprisingly awesome multiplayer. The X-wing vs. Tiefighter fights are great! Fast-paced, a little too much insta-death and camper-ish, but that should get better as more people pick it up. The game looks beautiful. I played the beta and thought it all felt a bit thin, but they seemed to have tightened it up. The guns feel "heavy", and headshots really count.

Lots of customizable options, the soundtrack is mostly out of Episode IV. It still feels like it wants a story, though. You just dive right into these battles without much context at all.… Expand

    It's not the most complex shooter, but it's the ideal pick-up-and-play experience for Star Wars fans. Stunning environments, solid shooting and immersive sound design mask the shortcomings. [Jan 2016, p.82]

    With the new film of the space opera saga finally on the big screen and the release of Battlefront's new sequel, both after a decade overdue, it is definitely the best time to be a Star Wars fan. The game itself is a dream-come-true for fans, and the Star Wars spectacle is strong in this one. However, if it is depth and longevity you seek... this is not the game you are looking for.

    Spectacular production values help to make this game enjoyable in the early going, but it soon enough shows that it is painfully lacking in terms of maps and depth in its current form. [Issue#265, p.72]
